Board News

The flags along the fence line this week remind me just what a special international community we have here at ISD.

Along with all the activities for World Cultural Month, the Board of Trustees has a busy schedule in April:

Our Annual General Meeting will be held on Thursday 20 April and I encourage you all to come along (you will receive a special communication about this event).

Before then, all parents / legal guardians of current students and faculty will be receiving an invitation to vote in the Trustee elections. We need 25% of you to vote in order to reach quorum, so I very much encourage you to have your say through this election process.

We will also be participating in a number of meetings with the Accreditation Team that is visiting the school in late April, as part of the school’s periodic accreditation with Middle States Association and the Council of International Schools.

However, first on our agenda is our regular April monthly board meeting. It will be held in the Conference Room in the Administration Building at 6.00 pm next Tuesday 11 April 2017, with refreshments served from 5.30 pm. You are welcome to attend as an observer – please see the agenda below.
